The latest flagship phone of Samsung, Galaxy S5 comes with amazing features. Though these features are not useful daily, but they are very useful in some situations.
Kids Mode
This is a great option in Galaxy S5. There is a dedicated kids mode in the Galaxy S5, and this isn’t just another feature which would do a limited stuff, but there is a lot included, and the kids gets to see a totally different interface which not just helps them get some interactive things to do, but at the same time, all your personal settings, apps and folders would go hidden and are kept safe.
Not just this, the kids can try to play around with the camera where
there are options such as editing and placing effects while capturing
the photo, and there are shortcuts to gallery, drawing and music but
everything is limited. To enter the Kids Mode in the Samsung Galaxy S5, you need to set it up with the Pin unlock setting in the device.
How to check Heart Rate with Galaxy S5
The Samsung Galaxy S5 comes with the heart rate sensor on the rear side, just below the camera.You can check your heart rate by using S Health. You need to open the S Health app and go to Heart Rate.
When it says “Ready Place your finger on the sensor.”, place the
finger horizontally over the sensor on the back. It would start measuring and would record the heart rate for a
minute, before the average is shown to you.
Control Samsung Gear Fit – Change Clock & Wallpaper
The Samsung Gear Fit, a fitness tracker which was launched by Samsung alongside the S5. It is compatible with this model only. And the compatibility and functioning is so good that you can instantly change the wallpaper and clock on the Gear Fit by just a touch of the option on your smartphone. The syncing and change in options happens instantly.
Using Download Booster
The Download booster is a new and brilliant feature in the Galaxy S5 which would help in downloading large files faster via Wi-Fi and mobile network simultaneously. Everything is done by the phone itself and the only thing you need to ensure is that both the Wi-Fi and Data network connectivity are turned on.
To activate the download booster, you need to go to Settings > Download booster and then drag the download booster switch to the right to turn it on. To do it in a faster way, there is a direct toggle in the quick settings in the notification panel.
How to use Emergency Mode
The emergency mode is something which does two things at the same time – enter the smartphone in a mode where the standby time is increased in an emergency situation so that the device is running for a longer time while it sends sound alarms, location information via messages and turns on the flash, reducing the other functions of the phone.
To activate the emergency mode, press and hold the power buttons until you see the window that is shown in the screenshot below. Tap on Emergency mode to activate it. Alternatively, you can even go to Settings > Safety assistance > Emergency mode and turn it on from there.
Activating Power Saving Mode
It is another brilliant option in S5. It comes with the options such as blocking background data, restricting performance, greyscale mode and there is an even better ultra power saving mode. The greyscale mode is to set the device to display colors on the screen as grey tones. To activate the power saving mode on your Galaxy S5, you need to go to either the Settings app and select the option, or there is a shortcut to it in the quick settings section in the notification panel.
Using the Galaxy S5 as Smart Remote
There is a pretty excellent app provided by Samsung in the Galaxy S5, which would make the device work as a smart remote. To make your device a remote, you need to set it up by opening the Smart Remote application from the app list and then select the location, TV service provider and then it is just the touch of the buttons which would do the functioning like a standard remote. This feature was there on the LG G2 and G Pro 2 already, but still is quite good for the Samsung devices.
These are the brilliant features that are included in Samsung Galaxy S5, which makes the phone different from other phones.
